    The movie Gone Girl was on FX tonight and it kept me guessing to the very end. Not for kids to watch but it was definitely an original screenplay (think it was a book first).

    Phantasm Ravanger. Phantasm was kind of a cult following especially with Angus Scrimm being a local person originally. Sorry to say the last one was a letdown.

    Original, or Nick Cage's version?

    I thought that book, and the film, were a lot of fun. I like the plot surprises and loved the ending.

    "A Dogs Purpose"

    It was the only thing showing I thought I could sit through. My better half was interested. I was totally unprepared for my reaction. It is certainly just a "cute" little movie about one dog being reincarnated and seeking meaning for his life. No great plot twists here and a simple screenplay.

    There was a guy sitting in the dark with his blue handkerchief out blowing his nose and trying to pretend to clean his glasses and occasionally dabbing tears off his cheek. What a softy.

    IL, it was the original, with Christopher Lee and Edward Woodard, 1973.

    I am having a Oscar Wilde film festival at the moment. I loaned out a DVD by BBCAmerica. There's four films plus a bonus one hour documentary on Wilde.
    I have seen The Importance of Being Earnest, The Picture of Dorian Gray. I'll soon watch The Ideal Husband and Lady Windermere's Fan

    Jeremy Brett, the actor who played Sherlock Holmes, appears in Dorian Gray as Basil the painter. Super acting and staging.

    I've never seen Gone Girl........but I was ticked at Jeopardy the other night, when one of the questions required an answer that revealed the end of the show!! I'm going to have to have a talk with Alex!

    Netflix finally made season 5 of Homeland available, so we got the first disc of that. But.........with our failing memories, we couldn't remember how season 4 went, so we got the last few episodes to that and watched that first. I had forgotten how full of violence it can be. Funny.......until recently I thought Quinn was quite a man...........but saw him in an interview, and he sort of acted like Pee Wee Herman. hahahaha So, he appears to do some real good 'acting' on Homeland.

    haha, I saw that Jeopardy and thought the same thing, although I've seen Gone Girl and knew the ending.

    I just started Zelda. So far so good! I love that period of American history, and I love the writers of that time, so it's right up my alley. But there's no intrigue, guns, and violence so DH is kind of suffering through it for me. But he owes me big time.
